  2. &lt;br /&gt;
  3. The past few months have not been favourable for me in general. It is a combination of many little things from various factors, mostly real life issues. It is a pity, but it is best for me to drop a few activities in the mean time. Well, hopefully this hiatus will not be as long as what &lt;a href=&quot;http://en.wikipedia.org/wiki/Yoshihiro_Togashi&quot;&gt;Togashi Yoshihiro&lt;/a&gt; does with his &lt;a href=&quot;http://en.wikipedia.org/wiki/Hunter_%C3%97_Hunter&quot;&gt;Hunter x Hunter&lt;/a&gt; manga series.&lt;br /&gt;
  4. &lt;br /&gt;
  5. I wish I can keep up with blogging, but given the real life issues, as well as the overall decline in blogging (from what I have observed) as a result of the growing popularity and ease of use of social media, I admit it is a pity seeing how things end up as they are. Given that I am more of a person who shares other news and other people&#39;s works rather making my own (as they are not particularly splendour), this also goes against my favour I suppose.&lt;br /&gt;
  6. &lt;br /&gt;
  7. I am slow on toys these days, especially due to space issues, as well as their increasing prices these days. Nevertheless I still look forward to hearing news of new Gunplas or even action figures even if I don&#39;t decide to buy them. As for the current anime and related toys, while there have always been a nice constant strema of them, not a lot of them really tickle my interest. One can say I have grown past it, but for me it&#39;s more like I don&#39;t know what really suits my taste so much, compared to what I used to enjoy in the past. Nostalgia does contribute to it, and in a dangerous way. I do hope there is a nice future for it, but maybe this is not the time. Well, at least there is still Hunter x Hunter for me to watch, and given that Togashi finally decodes to publish more chapters of the manga after a 2-year hiatus, there is something for me to look forward to, as well as the finale episode of Gundam UC OVA and the new anime such as GUNDAM THE ORIGIN (finally), and perhspa even G Reconguista. &lt;br /&gt;
  8. &lt;br /&gt;
  9. I can still be contacted by other means if you need to, so don&#39;t worry about that.&lt;br /&gt;
  10. &lt;br /&gt;
  11. That&#39;s it for now. I wish I can say something more positive at this moment, but that may have to come another day. It may be a sunset here for now, but there will always a daybreak after the darkest of the night.</content><link rel='replies' type='application/atom+xml' href='http://quentinlau.blogspot.com/feeds/5376553248207271731/comments/default' title='Post Comments'/><link rel='replies' type='text/html' href='http://quentinlau.blogspot.com/2014/05/hiatus.html#comment-form' title='5 Comments'/><link rel='edit' type='application/atom+xml' href='http://www.blogger.com/feeds/2856293244916346338/posts/default/5376553248207271731'/><link rel='self' type='application/atom+xml' href='http://www.blogger.com/feeds/2856293244916346338/posts/default/5376553248207271731'/><link rel='alternate' type='text/html' href='http://quentinlau.blogspot.com/2014/05/hiatus.html' title='Hiatus'/><author><name>Q</name><uri>http://www.blogger.com/profile/14369771267899546737</uri><email>noreply@blogger.com</email><gd:image rel='http://schemas.google.com/g/2005#thumbnail' width='26' height='32' src='//blogger.googleusercontent.com/img/b/R29vZ2xl/AVvXsEjqSf49h8-aDrpak-xMLG8me0sH3Q9OcrqWvaD_sp4TfD4O5FFYmqAA2TL0cH62x61MmZqLqq4d0SV_Ixz1rsw3NV6BgoAU8YCkrBPOvfYv2-mGZ7Md5lRunTChdrkOMBU/s220/Q.JPG'/></author><thr:total>5</thr:total></entry><entry><id>tag:blogger.com,1999:blog-2856293244916346338.post-1221454301323321391</id><published>2014-02-10T23:59:00.000+08:00</published><updated>2014-02-27T15:57:46.103+08:00</updated><category scheme="http://www.blogger.com/atom/ns#" term="Japan"/><title type='text'>Giant Isopod Plush Toy</title><content type='html'>&lt;a href=&quot;http://s552.photobucket.com/user/senorquentinos/media/Blog/414-WPNGE4L_zpsc534d047.jpg.html&quot; target=&quot;_blank&quot;&gt;&lt;img width=&quot;400&quot; src=&quot;http://i552.photobucket.com/albums/jj344/senorquentinos/Blog/414-WPNGE4L_zpsc534d047.jpg&quot; border=&quot;0&quot; alt=&quot; photo 414-WPNGE4L_zpsc534d047.jpg&quot;/&gt;&lt;/a&gt;&lt;br /&gt;
  12. Animal plush toys are usually cute. Usually. Would you say the same to this multi-legged crustacean - the giant isopod?&lt;br /&gt;
  13. &lt;br /&gt;
  14. &lt;span class=&quot;fullpost&quot;&gt;&lt;a href=&quot;http://s552.photobucket.com/user/senorquentinos/media/Blog/51gHI3JWWEL_zps1046dadd.jpg.html&quot; target=&quot;_blank&quot;&gt;&lt;img width=&quot;400&quot; src=&quot;http://i552.photobucket.com/albums/jj344/senorquentinos/Blog/51gHI3JWWEL_zps1046dadd.jpg&quot; border=&quot;0&quot; alt=&quot; photo 51gHI3JWWEL_zps1046dadd.jpg&quot;/&gt;&lt;/a&gt;&lt;br /&gt;
  15. The 4 views of the giant isopod plush toy.&lt;br /&gt;
  16. &lt;br /&gt;
  17. A museum in &lt;a href=&quot;http://en.wikipedia.org/wiki/Numazu,_Shizuoka&quot;&gt;Numazu&lt;/a&gt; specialising in deep sea creatures decided to make plush toys of giant isopods. Despite the unusual choice for making into a plush toy, it proves to be immensely popular with the visitors, and the extra large version was sold out in just a day.&lt;br /&gt;
  18. &lt;br /&gt;
  19. &lt;a href=&quot;http://s552.photobucket.com/user/senorquentinos/media/Blog/TKY201306210243_zps11c05dac.jpg.html&quot; target=&quot;_blank&quot;&gt;&lt;img width=&quot;400&quot; src=&quot;http://i552.photobucket.com/albums/jj344/senorquentinos/Blog/TKY201306210243_zps11c05dac.jpg&quot; border=&quot;0&quot; alt=&quot; photo TKY201306210243_zps11c05dac.jpg&quot;/&gt;&lt;/a&gt;&lt;br /&gt;
  20. The real giant isopod in Numazu Deepsea Aquarium.&lt;br /&gt;
  21. &lt;br /&gt;
  22. &lt;a href=&quot;http://en.wikipedia.org/wiki/Giant_isopod&quot;&gt;Giant isopods&lt;/a&gt; are related to woodlice, but live at the bottom of the seas and are much, much bigger.&lt;br /&gt;
  23. &lt;br /&gt;
  24. &lt;a href=&quot;http://s552.photobucket.com/user/senorquentinos/media/Blog/51M1ip7X39L_zps5f28cc91.jpg.html&quot; target=&quot;_blank&quot;&gt;&lt;img width=&quot;400&quot; src=&quot;http://i552.photobucket.com/albums/jj344/senorquentinos/Blog/51M1ip7X39L_zps5f28cc91.jpg&quot; border=&quot;0&quot; alt=&quot; photo 51M1ip7X39L_zps5f28cc91.jpg&quot;/&gt;&lt;/a&gt;&lt;br /&gt;
  25. The plush comes in various sizes, ranging from M to XL. M size is 20cm long, whereas L size is about 30cm long.&lt;br /&gt;
  26. &lt;br /&gt;
  27. &lt;a href=&quot;http://s552.photobucket.com/user/senorquentinos/media/Blog/414-WPNGE4L_zpsc534d047.jpg.html&quot; target=&quot;_blank&quot;&gt;&lt;img width=&quot;400&quot; src=&quot;http://i552.photobucket.com/albums/jj344/senorquentinos/Blog/414-WPNGE4L_zpsc534d047.jpg&quot; border=&quot;0&quot; alt=&quot; photo 414-WPNGE4L_zpsc534d047.jpg&quot;/&gt;&lt;/a&gt;&lt;br /&gt;
  28. The largest size has a length of 55cm, which is even bigger than the life size creature itself. Just why would they go for such a size in the first place? ^^;&lt;br /&gt;
  29. &lt;br /&gt;
  30. &lt;a href=&quot;http://s552.photobucket.com/user/senorquentinos/media/Blog/41gqKdyFxCL_zps670f59c8.jpg.html&quot; target=&quot;_blank&quot;&gt;&lt;img src=&quot;http://i552.photobucket.com/albums/jj344/senorquentinos/Blog/41gqKdyFxCL_zps670f59c8.jpg&quot; border=&quot;0&quot; alt=&quot; photo 41gqKdyFxCL_zps670f59c8.jpg&quot;/&gt;&lt;/a&gt;&lt;br /&gt;
  31. The scales have enough space for one to slip banknotes into them. Bet no one would ever think of this hiding spot of all places!&lt;br /&gt;
  32. &lt;br /&gt;
  33. &lt;a href=&quot;http://s552.photobucket.com/user/senorquentinos/media/Blog/41Yp4K6HjCL_zps23a215c2.jpg.html&quot; target=&quot;_blank&quot;&gt;&lt;img width=&quot;400&quot; src=&quot;http://i552.photobucket.com/albums/jj344/senorquentinos/Blog/41Yp4K6HjCL_zps23a215c2.jpg&quot; border=&quot;0&quot; alt=&quot; photo 41Yp4K6HjCL_zps23a215c2.jpg&quot;/&gt;&lt;/a&gt;&lt;br /&gt;
  34. The plush&#39;s huge size sure makes it ideal to cuddle, but does its look appeal to you? Well, I let you decide on that yourself.&lt;br /&gt;
  35. &lt;br /&gt;
  36. Well, at least I have to admit it is pretty detailed for a plush toy, which is not easy to make. The more I look at it, the more I want to see the real toy in person. The actual creature? Maybe not so much ^^;&lt;br /&gt;
  37. &lt;br /&gt;

  41. It has been a long time since I last reviewed a Gunpla. For a change I am reviewing a Gundam instead of a grunt machine, and this time it is HGAC 1/144 Wing Gundam, which is the first Gunpla announced for the All Gundam Project.&lt;br /&gt;
  42. &lt;br /&gt;
  43. First released in September 2013, HGAC 1/144 Wing Gundam is sold for 1500 Yen.&lt;br /&gt;
  44. &lt;br /&gt;
  45. &lt;a href=&quot;http://www.flickr.com/photos/quentinlau/12776020574/&quot; title=&quot;P2260032 by quentinlau, on Flickr&quot;&gt;&lt;img src=&quot;http://farm6.staticflickr.com/5537/12776020574_f8389a573f.jpg&quot; width=&quot;300&quot; height=&quot;400&quot; alt=&quot;P2260032&quot;&gt;&lt;/a&gt;&lt;br /&gt;
  46. Front&lt;br /&gt;
  47. &lt;br /&gt;
  48. &lt;a href=&quot;http://www.flickr.com/photos/quentinlau/12775572345/&quot; title=&quot;P2260033 by quentinlau, on Flickr&quot;&gt;&lt;img src=&quot;http://farm4.staticflickr.com/3832/12775572345_aaf269a578.jpg&quot; width=&quot;300&quot; height=&quot;400&quot; alt=&quot;P2260033&quot;&gt;&lt;/a&gt;&lt;br /&gt;
  49. Back&lt;br /&gt;
  50. &lt;br /&gt;
  51. &lt;a href=&quot;http://www.flickr.com/photos/quentinlau/12775710433/&quot; title=&quot;P2260036 by quentinlau, on Flickr&quot;&gt;&lt;img src=&quot;http://farm4.staticflickr.com/3751/12775710433_db5b106110.jpg&quot; width=&quot;400&quot; height=&quot;300&quot; alt=&quot;P2260036&quot;&gt;&lt;/a&gt;&lt;br /&gt;
  52. Equipments are simple and straightforward: a buster Rifle, shield, and a beam sabre that can be stored inside the shield&lt;br /&gt;
  53. &lt;br /&gt;
  54. &lt;a href=&quot;http://www.flickr.com/photos/quentinlau/12776019784/&quot; title=&quot;P2260038 by quentinlau, on Flickr&quot;&gt;&lt;img src=&quot;http://farm6.staticflickr.com/5535/12776019784_3a2941d96d.jpg&quot; width=&quot;400&quot; height=&quot;300&quot; alt=&quot;P2260038&quot;&gt;&lt;/a&gt;&lt;br /&gt;
  55. &lt;a href=&quot;http://www.flickr.com/photos/quentinlau/12775567285/&quot; title=&quot;P2260039 by quentinlau, on Flickr&quot;&gt;&lt;img src=&quot;http://farm6.staticflickr.com/5477/12775567285_57d3f9dc6c.jpg&quot; width=&quot;300&quot; height=&quot;400&quot; alt=&quot;P2260039&quot;&gt;&lt;/a&gt;&lt;br /&gt;
  56. Posing with buster rifle. The buster rifle is a powerful gun with very few shots available. It can take out multiple enemies with one shot, but once it runs out Wing Gundam would have to rely on its beam sabre, as well as its lesser weaponries like the machine cannons on shoulders and head vulcan.&lt;br /&gt;
  57. &lt;br /&gt;
  58. &lt;a href=&quot;http://www.flickr.com/photos/quentinlau/12775566865/&quot; title=&quot;P2260041 by quentinlau, on Flickr&quot;&gt;&lt;img src=&quot;http://farm8.staticflickr.com/7370/12775566865_03a048451e.jpg&quot; width=&quot;400&quot; height=&quot;300&quot; alt=&quot;P2260041&quot;&gt;&lt;/a&gt;&lt;br /&gt;
  59. A nice gimmick replicated in this Wing Gundam gunpla is that the beam sabre can be stored inside shield. The shield is folded to reveal it.&lt;br /&gt;
  60. &lt;br /&gt;
  61. &lt;a href=&quot;http://www.flickr.com/photos/quentinlau/12775702993/&quot; title=&quot;P2260042 by quentinlau, on Flickr&quot;&gt;&lt;img src=&quot;http://farm3.staticflickr.com/2825/12775702993_2fd067e683.jpg&quot; width=&quot;400&quot; height=&quot;300&quot; alt=&quot;P2260042&quot;&gt;&lt;/a&gt;&lt;br /&gt;
  62. &lt;a href=&quot;http://www.flickr.com/photos/quentinlau/12775565845/&quot; title=&quot;P2260045 by quentinlau, on Flickr&quot;&gt;&lt;img src=&quot;http://farm4.staticflickr.com/3795/12775565845_201a6fea70.jpg&quot; width=&quot;400&quot; height=&quot;300&quot; alt=&quot;P2260045&quot;&gt;&lt;/a&gt;&lt;br /&gt;
  63. Beam sabre in action. The actual beam is quite long; it is about the same length as the Gundam&#39;s height.&lt;br /&gt;
  64. &lt;br /&gt;
  65. &lt;a href=&quot;http://www.flickr.com/photos/quentinlau/12775559325/&quot; title=&quot;P2260050 by quentinlau, on Flickr&quot;&gt;&lt;img src=&quot;http://farm6.staticflickr.com/5493/12775559325_56d35c4de3.jpg&quot; width=&quot;400&quot; height=&quot;300&quot; alt=&quot;P2260050&quot;&gt;&lt;/a&gt;&lt;br /&gt;
  66. Height comparison with &lt;a href=&quot;http://quentinlau.blogspot.com/2011/02/00-qant-full-saber.html&quot;&gt;00 Qan[T] Full Saber&lt;/a&gt; and Gundam Ez8. MS in Gundam Wing, as well as those in G and X, do have slightly shorter height than the standard 18m for majority of the Gundams.&lt;br /&gt;
  67. &lt;br /&gt;

  70. Wing Gundam can transform into MA, which is called Bird Mode. The hands need to be removed for this form, but otherwise transformation is pretty straightforward with no part swapping required.&lt;br /&gt;
  71. &lt;br /&gt;

  76. A few more shots of the Wing Gundam to finish off the post.&lt;br /&gt;
  77. &lt;br /&gt;
  78. &lt;br /&gt;
  79. It has been nearly 19 years since we get a new 1/144 Wing Gundam gunpla. As this is not a big gunpla, there are not so many runners and parts. There are also not many polycaps, which can be worrying as many of the joints don&#39;t use one, therefore it is possible that they can be looser than anticipated. This is especially noticed on the arms below the shoulders, as they fall off quite easily as I am posing the gunpla. Nevertheless colour separation and details are nice overall, and transformation is easily done without a fuss. Pretty happy with this little kit.&lt;br /&gt;
  80. &lt;br /&gt;
  81. Looking forward to HGAC 1/144 Wing Gundam Zero that is due to release in March!&lt;br /&gt;

  85. With the immense popularity of Japanese web browser game Kantai Collection, its &quot;poster girl&quot; Shimakaze is announced to enter Max Factory&#39;s figma action figure line. Let&#39;s see how the anthropomorphised speedy Destroyer looks like.&lt;br /&gt;
  86. &lt;br /&gt;
  87. &lt;span class=&quot;fullpost&quot;&gt;&lt;a href=&quot;http://s4.photobucket.com/user/quentinlau/media/Blog/o0465060012806720570_zpsaa3418fb.jpg.html&quot; target=&quot;_blank&quot;&gt;&lt;img width=&quot;400&quot; src=&quot;http://i4.photobucket.com/albums/y131/quentinlau/Blog/o0465060012806720570_zpsaa3418fb.jpg&quot; border=&quot;0&quot; alt=&quot; photo o0465060012806720570_zpsaa3418fb.jpg&quot;/&gt;&lt;/a&gt;&lt;br /&gt;
  88. Shimakaze and her three Rensouhou-chans (連装砲ちゃん, literally translated as twin gun-chans).&lt;br /&gt;
  89. &lt;br /&gt;
  90. &lt;a href=&quot;http://s4.photobucket.com/user/quentinlau/media/Blog/o0442060012806720739_zpsced9c32d.jpg.html&quot; target=&quot;_blank&quot;&gt;&lt;img width=&quot;400&quot; src=&quot;http://i4.photobucket.com/albums/y131/quentinlau/Blog/o0442060012806720739_zpsced9c32d.jpg&quot; border=&quot;0&quot; alt=&quot; photo o0442060012806720739_zpsced9c32d.jpg&quot;/&gt;&lt;/a&gt;&lt;br /&gt;
  91. Shimakaze with her quintuple &lt;a href=&quot;http://en.wikipedia.org/wiki/Type_93_torpedo&quot;&gt;Type 93 torpedo&lt;/a&gt; tubes mounted at her back.&lt;br /&gt;
  92. &lt;br /&gt;
  93. &lt;a href=&quot;http://s4.photobucket.com/user/quentinlau/media/Blog/o0490060012806720572_zps11e21b58.jpg.html&quot; target=&quot;_blank&quot;&gt;&lt;img width=&quot;400&quot; src=&quot;http://i4.photobucket.com/albums/y131/quentinlau/Blog/o0490060012806720572_zps11e21b58.jpg&quot; border=&quot;0&quot; alt=&quot; photo o0490060012806720572_zps11e21b58.jpg&quot;/&gt;&lt;/a&gt;&lt;br /&gt;
  94. Attack!&lt;br /&gt;
  95. &lt;br /&gt;
  96. &lt;a href=&quot;http://s4.photobucket.com/user/quentinlau/media/Blog/o0420060012806720569_zpse44ade90.jpg.html&quot; target=&quot;_blank&quot;&gt;&lt;img width=&quot;400&quot; src=&quot;http://i4.photobucket.com/albums/y131/quentinlau/Blog/o0420060012806720569_zpse44ade90.jpg&quot; border=&quot;0&quot; alt=&quot; photo o0420060012806720569_zpse44ade90.jpg&quot;/&gt;&lt;/a&gt;&lt;br /&gt;
  97. Torpedo tubes can be removed. This pose is based on one of the illustrations.&lt;br /&gt;
  98. &lt;br /&gt;
  99. &lt;a href=&quot;http://s4.photobucket.com/user/quentinlau/media/Blog/o0419060012806720571_zpscbc77319.jpg.html&quot; target=&quot;_blank&quot;&gt;&lt;img width=&quot;400&quot; src=&quot;http://i4.photobucket.com/albums/y131/quentinlau/Blog/o0419060012806720571_zpscbc77319.jpg&quot; border=&quot;0&quot; alt=&quot; photo o0419060012806720571_zpscbc77319.jpg&quot;/&gt;&lt;/a&gt;&lt;br /&gt;
  100. Damaged pose with an embarrassed face. The figma has no damaged cloth parts unlike the &lt;a href=&quot;http://www.goodsmile.info/en/product/4072/Nendoroid+Shimakaze.html&quot;&gt;Nendoroid counterpart&lt;/a&gt;.&lt;br /&gt;
  101. &lt;br /&gt;
  102. &lt;a href=&quot;http://s4.photobucket.com/user/quentinlau/media/Blog/rensoho_s_zps0431d90f.jpg.html&quot; target=&quot;_blank&quot;&gt;&lt;img width=&quot;400&quot; src=&quot;http://i4.photobucket.com/albums/y131/quentinlau/Blog/rensoho_s_zps0431d90f.jpg&quot; border=&quot;0&quot; alt=&quot; photo rensoho_s_zps0431d90f.jpg&quot;/&gt;&lt;/a&gt;&lt;br /&gt;
  103. If one orders from Good Smile Online Shop, there will be a bonus face for one of the Rensouhou-chan (>△<) to represent the damaged expression.&lt;br /&gt;
  104. &lt;br /&gt;
  105. &lt;br /&gt;
  106. Shimakaze is available for pre-order for 5800 Yen, and will be released in May. However, due to licensing this is supposed to be released in Japan only. But then there are shops and services that can allow you to purchase them overseas should you be interested.&lt;br /&gt;
  107. &lt;br /&gt;
  108. While Shimakaze is not my favourite character in the game, I will be looking forward to her release~&lt;br /&gt;
  109. &lt;br /&gt;

  112. 2013 has come to an end.&lt;br /&gt;
  113. &lt;br /&gt;
  114. This year has not been stellar, to put it least negatively. The last quarter of the year has been especially less enjoyable; we had a family member suffering from ill health for many years, and seeing her suffer throughout the year until her final day was quite a toll for us. Luckily the week-long trip to Tokyo just before Christmas brought things to a lighter end to finish the year off.&lt;br /&gt;
  115. &lt;br /&gt;
  116. Let us look back at the some of the highlights of the year.&lt;br /&gt;
  117. &lt;br /&gt;
  118. &lt;span class=&quot;fullpost&quot;&gt;&lt;a href=&quot;http://s552.photobucket.com/user/senorquentinos/media/Blog/IMG_20130417_122652_zpsb600a498.jpg.html&quot; target=&quot;_blank&quot;&gt;&lt;img alt=&quot; photo IMG_20130417_122652_zpsb600a498.jpg&quot; border=&quot;0&quot; src=&quot;http://i552.photobucket.com/albums/jj344/senorquentinos/Blog/IMG_20130417_122652_zpsb600a498.jpg&quot; width=&quot;400&quot; /&gt;&lt;/a&gt;&lt;br /&gt;
  119. &lt;a href=&quot;http://quentinlau.blogspot.hk/2013/04/uss-peleliu-lha-5-in-hong-kong.html&quot;&gt;USS Peleliu visited Hong Kong in April&lt;/a&gt;. It was my first time seeing an active warship up close!&lt;br /&gt;
  120. &lt;br /&gt;
  121. &lt;a href=&quot;http://s4.photobucket.com/user/quentinlau/media/Blog/P5261945_zpse8f14645.jpg.html&quot; target=&quot;_blank&quot;&gt;&lt;img alt=&quot; photo P5261945_zpse8f14645.jpg&quot; border=&quot;0&quot; src=&quot;http://i4.photobucket.com/albums/y131/quentinlau/Blog/P5261945_zpse8f14645.jpg&quot; width=&quot;400&quot; /&gt;&lt;/a&gt;&lt;br /&gt;
  122. The &lt;a href=&quot;http://quentinlau.blogspot.hk/2013/05/giant-rubber-duck-in-hong-kong.html&quot;&gt;larger-than-life giant Rubber Duck&lt;/a&gt; was a big fad in Hong Kong; you couldn&#39;t get away without hearing or reading something about it every day while it was here!&lt;br /&gt;
  123. &lt;br /&gt;
  124. &lt;a href=&quot;http://www.flickr.com/photos/quentinlau/10358984116/&quot; title=&quot;P7272147 by quentinlau, on Flickr&quot;&gt;&lt;img alt=&quot;P7272147&quot; src=&quot;http://farm4.staticflickr.com/3672/10358984116_8cee574d1d.jpg&quot; height=&quot;300&quot; width=&quot;400&quot; /&gt;&lt;/a&gt;&lt;br /&gt;
  125. &lt;a href=&quot;http://quentinlau.blogspot.hk/2013/10/gundam-docks-at-hong-kong.html&quot;&gt;Gundam Docks at Hong Kong&lt;/a&gt;! A 6m tall Gundam, as well as an equally tall Char&#39;s Zaku, made appearance outside Times Square.&lt;br /&gt;
  126. &lt;br /&gt;
  127. &lt;a href=&quot;http://imageshack.us/photo/my-images/5/d6xq.jpg/&quot; target=&quot;_blank&quot; title=&quot;ImageShack - Image And Video Hosting&quot;&gt;&lt;img border=&quot;0&quot; src=&quot;http://img5.imageshack.us/img5/1245/d6xq.jpg&quot; width=&quot;400&quot; /&gt;&lt;/a&gt;&lt;br /&gt;
  128. &lt;a href=&quot;http://quentinlau.blogspot.hk/2013/07/distant-worlds-in-hong-kong-2013.html&quot;&gt;Distant Worlds&lt;/a&gt; concert tour finally made a stop in Hong Kong for the first time! Being a fan of Final Fantasy&#39;s music, it was really a great pleasure to be able to listen to the concert in person!&lt;br /&gt;
  129. &lt;br /&gt;
  130. &lt;a href=&quot;http://instagram.com/p/Zo0u9wCF9V&quot;&gt;&lt;img src=&quot;http://distilleryimage1.ak.instagram.com/62558c8ac35211e2a74822000a9e2993_7.jpg&quot; width=&quot;400&quot; /&gt;&lt;/a&gt;&lt;br /&gt;
  131. Toy reviews had been minimal this year, which is a real pity. I did build a few Gunpla kits this year, but haven&#39;t got around to take photos of them. Hope I will get around to do more in the near future.&lt;br /&gt;
  132. &lt;br /&gt;
  133. &lt;img width=&quot;400&quot; src=&quot;https://pbs.twimg.com/media/BcAjnikCcAAZ9jq.jpg&quot;&gt;&lt;br /&gt;
  134. Nevertheless, the trip to Tokyo was a pleasure. Again big thanks to Arab-san and his doll Sakuya-san for taking me out around Akihabara and Dollpa event!&lt;br /&gt;
  135. &lt;br /&gt;
  136. Well, the year has past, and let us look ahead to the new year and hopefully look for a brighter future!&lt;br /&gt;

  138. The final purchase of the 2013 was D-Arts Black Zero from Rockman X / Mega Man X video game series.&lt;br /&gt;
  139. &lt;br /&gt;
  140. &lt;span class=&quot;fullpost&quot;&gt;&lt;a href=&quot;http://www.flickr.com/photos/quentinlau/12178179724/&quot; title=&quot;P1180003 by quentinlau, on Flickr&quot;&gt;&lt;img src=&quot;http://farm4.staticflickr.com/3822/12178179724_ee5620d589.jpg&quot; width=&quot;300&quot; height=&quot;400&quot; alt=&quot;P1180003&quot;&gt;&lt;/a&gt;&lt;br /&gt;
  141. The Black Zero is basically a colour variation of Zero Type 2 released in 2012. It is a Premium Bandai Tamashii Web Shop exclusive item sold for 3500 Yen.&lt;br /&gt;
  142. &lt;br /&gt;
  143. There are 2 kinds of Black Zero in the Rockman X / Mega Man X video game series: The first one is a fake copy that will be quickly be destroyed by the original in X3, whereas in future instalments it is an optional &quot;upgrade armour&quot; for Zero, which usually boosts his power.&lt;br /&gt;
  144. &lt;br /&gt;
  145. &lt;a href=&quot;http://www.flickr.com/photos/quentinlau/12177770785/&quot; title=&quot;P1210004 by quentinlau, on Flickr&quot;&gt;&lt;img src=&quot;http://farm4.staticflickr.com/3820/12177770785_f32a72aa69.jpg&quot; width=&quot;400&quot; height=&quot;300&quot; alt=&quot;P1210004&quot;&gt;&lt;/a&gt;&lt;br /&gt;
  146. Accessories include 3 types of Z-sabres, a normal right arm, 3 optional faces, 2 pairs of hands, and a muzzle part for Z-Buster for inserting effect parts (which are not included but can be used from other figures).&lt;br /&gt;
  147. &lt;br /&gt;
  148. The Black Zero figure is pretty much the same as the red one, whose review can be seen &lt;a href=&quot;http://quentinlau.blogspot.com/2012/06/d-arts-zero-type-2-review.html&quot;&gt;here&lt;/a&gt;.&lt;br /&gt;

  181. Various action poses&lt;br /&gt;
  182. &lt;br /&gt;
  183. &lt;a href=&quot;http://www.flickr.com/photos/quentinlau/12178172034/&quot; title=&quot;P1230029 by quentinlau, on Flickr&quot;&gt;&lt;img src=&quot;http://farm3.staticflickr.com/2836/12178172034_a1f4d5836f.jpg&quot; width=&quot;400&quot; height=&quot;300&quot; alt=&quot;P1230029&quot;&gt;&lt;/a&gt;&lt;br /&gt;
  184. Black Zero has a total of 4 faces. The default face is the same, whereas the two on the left of the picture are minor variations of the red one, with the eyes looking at different directions. The fourth one on the right is a face based on the manga version.&lt;br /&gt;
  185. &lt;br /&gt;
  186. &lt;a href=&quot;http://www.flickr.com/photos/quentinlau/12178173584/&quot; title=&quot;P1230023 by quentinlau, on Flickr&quot;&gt;&lt;img src=&quot;http://farm8.staticflickr.com/7311/12178173584_46ebb26daa.jpg&quot; width=&quot;300&quot; height=&quot;400&quot; alt=&quot;P1230023&quot;&gt;&lt;/a&gt;&lt;br /&gt;
  187. And here is Black Zero with the manga version face. All I can say is... I am not used to it. ^^;&lt;br /&gt;
  188. &lt;br /&gt;
  189. &lt;a href=&quot;http://www.flickr.com/photos/quentinlau/12178383026/&quot; title=&quot;P1230024 by quentinlau, on Flickr&quot;&gt;&lt;img src=&quot;http://farm8.staticflickr.com/7441/12178383026_e9d573f8f5.jpg&quot; width=&quot;400&quot; height=&quot;300&quot; alt=&quot;P1230024&quot;&gt;&lt;/a&gt;&lt;br /&gt;
  190. But I guess Zero approves this new face?&lt;br /&gt;
  191. &lt;br /&gt;
  192. &lt;a href=&quot;http://www.flickr.com/photos/quentinlau/12177764015/&quot; title=&quot;P1230028 by quentinlau, on Flickr&quot;&gt;&lt;img src=&quot;http://farm3.staticflickr.com/2873/12177764015_189f4be049.jpg&quot; width=&quot;400&quot; height=&quot;300&quot; alt=&quot;P1230028&quot;&gt;&lt;/a&gt;&lt;br /&gt;
  193. Comparison of original red Zero with Black Zero. Overall the red parts are replaced with black colour, whereas the hair becomes more of a dull cream colour. The paint job looks better than the original as there is now a nice finish surface, unlike the original which looks more like cheap plastic here and there.&lt;br /&gt;
  194. &lt;br /&gt;
  195. &lt;br /&gt;
  196. The Black Zero may just be a colour variation of the red Zero with minor deviations, but the quality and finish is good. The helmet problem I faced in the red one is not observed here. The eyes still seem a bit too far up for the faces, hence it&#39;s difficult to take pictures of him while seeing the eyes clearly, but this seems to be a design issue rather than a quality one. Overall, this long anticipated black colour version of Zero is pretty satisfying to play around with. I do wonder who will be next in the line for D-Art&#39;s Mega Man series action figures?&lt;br /&gt;

  198. Better later than never, a review of this year&#39;s Snow Miku, the Strawberry White Kimono Version, is up!&lt;br /&gt;
  199. &lt;br /&gt;
  200. &lt;span class=&quot;fullpost&quot;&gt;&lt;a href=&quot;http://s4.photobucket.com/user/quentinlau/media/Blog/P1112562_zpsc413bc84.jpg.html&quot; target=&quot;_blank&quot;&gt;&lt;img alt=&quot; photo P1112562_zpsc413bc84.jpg&quot; border=&quot;0&quot; src=&quot;http://i4.photobucket.com/albums/y131/quentinlau/Blog/P1112562_zpsc413bc84.jpg&quot; width=&quot;400&quot; /&gt;&lt;/a&gt;&lt;br /&gt;
  201. The box is quite big for a nendoroid, and is currently the biggest I own so far. Unlike many nendoroids, Snow Miku Strawberry White Kimono version is packed in a windowless box.&lt;br /&gt;
  202. &lt;br /&gt;
  203. &lt;a href=&quot;http://s4.photobucket.com/user/quentinlau/media/Blog/P1112563_zpsad9250a6.jpg.html&quot; target=&quot;_blank&quot;&gt;&lt;img alt=&quot; photo P1112563_zpsad9250a6.jpg&quot; border=&quot;0&quot; src=&quot;http://i4.photobucket.com/albums/y131/quentinlau/Blog/P1112563_zpsad9250a6.jpg&quot; width=&quot;400&quot; /&gt;&lt;/a&gt;&lt;br /&gt;
  204. The box is different to most other Nendoroid boxes; it is a hard paperboard gift box with top and bottom wrapped around by a thin paper jacket. Overall it gives an impression as if it&#39;s a gift box for seasonal confectioneries.&lt;br /&gt;
  205. &lt;br /&gt;
  206. &lt;a href=&quot;http://s4.photobucket.com/user/quentinlau/media/Blog/P1112564_zpscb6cc2a1.jpg.html&quot; target=&quot;_blank&quot;&gt;&lt;img alt=&quot; photo P1112564_zpscb6cc2a1.jpg&quot; border=&quot;0&quot; src=&quot;http://i4.photobucket.com/albums/y131/quentinlau/Blog/P1112564_zpscb6cc2a1.jpg&quot; width=&quot;400&quot; /&gt;&lt;/a&gt;&lt;br /&gt;
  207. The contents: Snow Miku figure, 2 faces, 2 pairs of arms, open palms and a pair of hands for holding the umbrella, a body for sitting down, an umbrella, and a base.&lt;br /&gt;
  208. &lt;br /&gt;
  209. Also not shown here is a red round plate, a toothpick, a snow rabbit, and head part with Miku&#39;s signature twin tails&lt;br /&gt;
  210. &lt;br /&gt;
  211. &lt;a href=&quot;http://s4.photobucket.com/user/quentinlau/media/Blog/P1112565_zps8c40ff6d.jpg.html&quot; target=&quot;_blank&quot;&gt;&lt;img alt=&quot; photo P1112565_zps8c40ff6d.jpg&quot; border=&quot;0&quot; src=&quot;http://i4.photobucket.com/albums/y131/quentinlau/Blog/P1112565_zps8c40ff6d.jpg&quot; width=&quot;400&quot; /&gt;&lt;/a&gt;&lt;br /&gt;
  212. Front view&lt;br /&gt;
  213. &lt;br /&gt;
  214. As the name suggests, Snow Miku wears a white kimono, which is also known as shiromuku (白無垢). White was considered a sacred colour, and the shiromuku was worn in important occasions or formal ceremonies. The strawberry part of the name is hinted in the red accents in Miku&#39;s kimono, as well as the inner surface of the hood.&lt;br /&gt;
  215. &lt;br /&gt;

  235. The parts that are not shown earlier: A red dish, a toothpick, and a &lt;a href=&quot;http://en.wikipedia.org/wiki/Daifuku&quot;&gt;daifuku&lt;/a&gt; in the shape of a snow rabbit.&lt;br /&gt;
  236. &lt;br /&gt;

  238. Miku sitting down on the dish.&amp;nbsp; With the snow rabbit and the hood looking like daifukus, the whole thing looks almost as if it&#39;s edible from a distance.&lt;br /&gt;
  239. &lt;br /&gt;

  241. Miku sitting down with her second face, which has a wider grin and looking slightly to her left. Lots of part swapping is required to move the parts from the standing body to the sitting one, including the arms, head, as well as her left leg.&lt;br /&gt;
  242. &lt;br /&gt;
  243. While the shoulders have pegs to prevent the holes from shrinking (which is a good thing), the hole for the neck joint did not have one, and as a result the head would not fit into the body in the first place. I had to quite a bit of work to cut open a larger hole to get the head in.&lt;br /&gt;
  244. &lt;br /&gt;

  249. And a few pictures to finish it off.&lt;br /&gt;
  250. &lt;br /&gt;
  251. &lt;br /&gt;
  252. Nendoroid Snow Miku Strawberry White Kimono Version is pretty satisfying to have. Overall quality is good with few complaints. The main issue I had was the neck hole for the alternate body part, and that there are a few parts such as the hair that are delicate, and caution is needed when handling. The design is very different to that from last year&#39;s &lt;a href=&quot;http://www.goodsmile.info/en/product/3434/Nendoroid+Snow+Miku+Fluffy+Coat+Ver.html&quot;&gt;Fluffy Coat Version&lt;/a&gt;, as Miku now embodies a traditional Japanese look. What&#39;s more interesting is the food theme behind this year&#39;s Snow Miku, with daifuku being represented on the hood as well as the white rabbit, together with the red confectionery plate and even the packaging itself.&lt;br /&gt;
  253. &lt;br /&gt;
  254. Although the quality problem from last year&#39;s Snow Miku got me worried quite a bit, this year&#39;s Sakura Miku and Snow Miku reassured me a bit. Looking forward to next year&#39;s magical girl theme version!&lt;/span&gt;</content><link rel='replies' type='application/atom+xml' href='http://quentinlau.blogspot.com/feeds/4426611381219708568/comments/default' title='Post Comments'/><link rel='replies' type='text/html' href='http://quentinlau.blogspot.com/2013/12/nendoroid-snow-miku-strawberry-white.html#comment-form' title='2 Comments'/><link rel='edit' type='application/atom+xml' href='http://www.blogger.com/feeds/2856293244916346338/posts/default/4426611381219708568'/><link rel='self' type='application/atom+xml' href='http://www.blogger.com/feeds/2856293244916346338/posts/default/4426611381219708568'/><link rel='alternate' type='text/html' href='http://quentinlau.blogspot.com/2013/12/nendoroid-snow-miku-strawberry-white.html' title='Nendoroid Snow Miku Strawberry White Kimono Version Review'/><author><name>Q</name><uri>http://www.blogger.com/profile/14369771267899546737</uri><email>noreply@blogger.com</email><gd:image rel='http://schemas.google.com/g/2005#thumbnail' width='26' height='32' src='//blogger.googleusercontent.com/img/b/R29vZ2xl/AVvXsEjqSf49h8-aDrpak-xMLG8me0sH3Q9OcrqWvaD_sp4TfD4O5FFYmqAA2TL0cH62x61MmZqLqq4d0SV_Ixz1rsw3NV6BgoAU8YCkrBPOvfYv2-mGZ7Md5lRunTChdrkOMBU/s220/Q.JPG'/></author><media:thumbnail xmlns:media="http://search.yahoo.com/mrss/" url="http://i4.photobucket.com/albums/y131/quentinlau/Blog/th_P1132584_zpsdc0b4437.jpg" height="72" width="72"/><thr:total>2</thr:total></entry><entry><id>tag:blogger.com,1999:blog-2856293244916346338.post-4473791412199403585</id><published>2013-12-27T23:59:00.000+08:00</published><updated>2014-01-28T12:48:41.606+08:00</updated><category scheme="http://www.blogger.com/atom/ns#" term="Gundam"/><category scheme="http://www.blogger.com/atom/ns#" term="Japan"/><category scheme="http://www.blogger.com/atom/ns#" term="Models"/><title type='text'>Gundam Front Tokyo 2013</title><content type='html'>&lt;a href=&quot;http://www.flickr.com/photos/quentinlau/11692153054/&quot; title=&quot;IMG_20131219_183520 by quentinlau, on Flickr&quot;&gt;&lt;img alt=&quot;IMG_20131219_183520&quot; src=&quot;http://farm8.staticflickr.com/7332/11692153054_9e2c61d6b4.jpg&quot; height=&quot;400&quot; width=&quot;300&quot; /&gt;&lt;/a&gt;&lt;br /&gt;
  255. I visited Gundam Front Tokyo in Odaiba &lt;a href=&quot;http://quentinlau.blogspot.com/2013/01/gundam-front-tokyo-part-1.html&quot;&gt;last&lt;/a&gt; &lt;a href=&quot;http://quentinlau.blogspot.com/2013/01/gundam-front-tokyo-part-2.html%E2%80%8E&quot;&gt;year&lt;/a&gt;, and it was a great time out there. This year I visited it again with my old schoolmates, and while a lot of things are expected to remain the same, some exhibited items have been changed. &lt;br /&gt;

Kotobukiya held an exhibition of figures that sculpted from his illustrations.&lt;br /&gt;

  414. Merry Christmas, or Happy Holidays if you are not celebrating Christmas. I was in Tokyo with friends for the past week, so I did not have sufficient time to tend to my blog. Nevertheless, a few Christmas-related trip photos for this post to go with the day.&lt;br /&gt;
  415. &lt;br /&gt;

  417. Managed to bring my Black★Rock Shooter doll to Tokyo and meet up with a twitter friend &lt;a href=&quot;https://twitter.com/arab2489&quot;&gt;Arab-san&lt;/a&gt; and his doll Sakuya-san dressed in Santa-theme attire. Big thanks to him for bringing me around Akihabara and Tokyo Big Sight for the weekend!&lt;br /&gt;

  420. And finally Rensouhou-chan from Kantai Collection, a web browser game that many Japanese are excited over.&lt;br /&gt;

  424. Max Factory recently announced figma Snow Miku!&lt;br /&gt;
  425. &lt;br /&gt;
  426. &lt;span class=&quot;fullpost&quot;&gt;&lt;a href=&quot;http://s4.photobucket.com/user/quentinlau/media/Blog/o0530051812772237502_zps6c9c592d.jpg.html&quot; target=&quot;_blank&quot;&gt;&lt;img alt=&quot; photo o0530051812772237502_zps6c9c592d.jpg&quot; border=&quot;0&quot; src=&quot;http://i4.photobucket.com/albums/y131/quentinlau/Blog/o0530051812772237502_zps6c9c592d.jpg&quot; width=&quot;400&quot; /&gt;&lt;/a&gt;&lt;br /&gt;
  427. While Good Smile Company&#39;s nendoroid line has released Snow Miku annually since 2009, Max Factory&#39;s figma action figure line has not made such announcment until now. The design will be based on the &lt;a href=&quot;http://www.goodsmile.info/en/product/2777/Nendoroid+Snow+Miku.html&quot;&gt;very first Snow Miku&lt;/a&gt; (basically a colour swap of the original), with the sculpy based on figma Hatsune Miku 2.0 released last November.&lt;br /&gt;
  428. &lt;br /&gt;
  429. &lt;a href=&quot;http://s4.photobucket.com/user/quentinlau/media/Blog/o0470060012772237503_zps683ca7e0.jpg.html&quot; target=&quot;_blank&quot;&gt;&lt;img alt=&quot; photo o0470060012772237503_zps683ca7e0.jpg&quot; border=&quot;0&quot; src=&quot;http://i4.photobucket.com/albums/y131/quentinlau/Blog/o0470060012772237503_zps683ca7e0.jpg&quot; width=&quot;400&quot; /&gt;&lt;/a&gt;&lt;br /&gt;
  430. figma Snow Miku will feature 3 face expression parts. One is a smiling face looking to her left, while another is looking to her right, supposedly called the &quot;singing face&quot;.&lt;br /&gt;
  431. &lt;br /&gt;
  432. &lt;a href=&quot;http://s4.photobucket.com/user/quentinlau/media/Blog/o0530040612772237754_zpsbac22de4.jpg.html&quot; target=&quot;_blank&quot;&gt;&lt;img alt=&quot; photo o0530040612772237754_zpsbac22de4.jpg&quot; border=&quot;0&quot; src=&quot;http://i4.photobucket.com/albums/y131/quentinlau/Blog/o0530040612772237754_zpsbac22de4.jpg&quot; width=&quot;400&quot; /&gt;&lt;/a&gt;&lt;br /&gt;
  433. The third expression will be one with a faint blush. She will also come with mufflers for her hands.&lt;br /&gt;
  434. &lt;br /&gt;

  436. Snow Miku will even come with a tiny snowman figure!&lt;br /&gt;
  437. &lt;br /&gt;
  438. &lt;a href=&quot;http://s4.photobucket.com/user/quentinlau/media/Blog/o0530057412772237504_zps3661f857.jpg.html&quot; target=&quot;_blank&quot;&gt;&lt;img alt=&quot; photo o0530057412772237504_zps3661f857.jpg&quot; border=&quot;0&quot; src=&quot;http://i4.photobucket.com/albums/y131/quentinlau/Blog/o0530057412772237504_zps3661f857.jpg&quot; width=&quot;400&quot; /&gt;&lt;/a&gt;&lt;br /&gt;
  439. And finally a pose based on Vocaloid&#39;s official artwork that Miku is first well known for.&lt;br /&gt;
  440. &lt;br /&gt;
  441. figma Snow Miku will first be available in an event in Sapporo, where she can be acquired from exchanging tickets, which are required to be acquired from a lucky draw basis. She will also be available for sale in Wonder Festival 2014 Winter event, and finally on web order after both events are over (release date to be confirmed).&lt;br /&gt;
  442. &lt;br /&gt;
  443. Hope I can get my hands on her sometime next year!&lt;br /&gt;

  448. A friend of mine recently came back from his trip to Japan. For souvenir he gave me and other friends some &quot;Tsundere Russian Cookies&quot;. &lt;br /&gt;
  449. &lt;br /&gt;
  450. &lt;span class=&quot;fullpost&quot;&gt;&lt;a href=&quot;http://s552.photobucket.com/user/senorquentinos/media/1426251_10151852994678212_925157648_n_zps49fd9002.jpg.html&quot; target=&quot;_blank&quot;&gt;&lt;img alt=&quot; photo 1426251_10151852994678212_925157648_n_zps49fd9002.jpg&quot; border=&quot;0&quot; src=&quot;http://i552.photobucket.com/albums/jj344/senorquentinos/1426251_10151852994678212_925157648_n_zps49fd9002.jpg&quot; width=&quot;400&quot; /&gt;&lt;/a&gt;&lt;br /&gt;
  451. The box looks like typical anime theme confectionary, but that is not the main point for me; what makes the cookies interesting is that they are spicy. Well, at least 10 out of 12 of them are spicy. I was unfortunate to fall for the majority, and the cookie was surprisingly spicy. Or rather it was difficult for me to imagine a cookie to be spicy in the first place!&lt;br /&gt;
  452. &lt;br /&gt;
  453. &lt;a href=&quot;http://s552.photobucket.com/user/senorquentinos/media/Blog/0112_tsundere-russian-cookie_03_zpsc8c2d001.jpg.html&quot; target=&quot;_blank&quot;&gt;&lt;img alt=&quot; photo 0112_tsundere-russian-cookie_03_zpsc8c2d001.jpg&quot; border=&quot;0&quot; src=&quot;http://i552.photobucket.com/albums/jj344/senorquentinos/Blog/0112_tsundere-russian-cookie_03_zpsc8c2d001.jpg&quot; width=&quot;400&quot; /&gt;&lt;/a&gt;&lt;br /&gt;
  454. The cookies are sold for 420 Yen per box in districts associated with anime, manga, game merchandise such as &lt;a href=&quot;http://en.wikipedia.org/wiki/Akihabara&quot;&gt;Akihabara&lt;/a&gt; in Tokyo. My friend got it in &lt;a href=&quot;http://en.wikipedia.org/wiki/Nipponbashi&quot;&gt;Nipponbashi&lt;/a&gt; in Osaka, which is comparable to Akihabara.&lt;br /&gt;
  455. &lt;br /&gt;
  456. &lt;a href=&quot;http://s552.photobucket.com/user/senorquentinos/media/Blog/2008-12-24-408mBx7oW_zps9e4f1651.jpg.html&quot; target=&quot;_blank&quot;&gt;&lt;img alt=&quot; photo 2008-12-24-408mBx7oW_zps9e4f1651.jpg&quot; border=&quot;0&quot; src=&quot;http://i552.photobucket.com/albums/jj344/senorquentinos/Blog/2008-12-24-408mBx7oW_zps9e4f1651.jpg&quot; width=&quot;400&quot; /&gt;&lt;/a&gt;&lt;br /&gt;
  457. Cookie package with little skulls and numbers on them.&lt;br /&gt;
  458. &lt;br /&gt;
  459. &lt;a href=&quot;http://s552.photobucket.com/user/senorquentinos/media/Blog/2008-12-24-409LN5TLT_zps4e3d5910.jpg.html&quot; target=&quot;_blank&quot;&gt;&lt;img alt=&quot; photo 2008-12-24-409LN5TLT_zps4e3d5910.jpg&quot; border=&quot;0&quot; src=&quot;http://i552.photobucket.com/albums/jj344/senorquentinos/Blog/2008-12-24-409LN5TLT_zps4e3d5910.jpg&quot; width=&quot;400&quot; /&gt;&lt;/a&gt;&lt;br /&gt;
  460. The side of the box also comes with a yonkoma comic strip&lt;br /&gt;
  461. &lt;br /&gt;
  462. I probably won&#39;t look forward to eating another spicy cookie, but it sure is an interesting experience with friends ^^;&lt;br /&gt;

  466. After yesterday&#39;s &lt;a href=&quot;http://quentinlau.blogspot.com/2013/11/blog-post_28.html&quot;&gt;いいニーハイの日&lt;/a&gt;, we have another special day in Japan. What is it? It&#39;s the いい肉の日 (nice meat day).&lt;br /&gt;
  467. &lt;br /&gt;
  468. The name, just like the nice knee-high day the day before, is a play on pronunciation. The phrase &quot;nice meat&quot;, which is pronounced as &quot;ii niku&quot;, is similar to pronunciation for &quot;1129&quot;, hence 29th November is the &quot;Nice Meat Day&quot;. Japanese twitter users post a lot of pictures to go with this day.&lt;br /&gt;
  469. &lt;br /&gt;

  495. According to the Japanese twitter community, the day 28th November is a special day. By pronouncing the date &quot;1128&quot; in numbers, the result will sound similar to いいニーハイ (iini-hai), which means nice knee-high (socks). Hence 28th November is known as いいニーハイの日 (nice knee-high socks day), and it is this day many people post pictures of &quot;knee-highs&quot; to go with the day.&lt;br /&gt;

  526. A new Doraemon movie will be produced in 3D CG for the first time in Summer 2014. Called &quot;STAND BY ME&quot;, the movie will most likely base on the early stories of the original manga collection.&lt;br /&gt;
  527. &lt;br /&gt;
  528. &lt;span class=&quot;fullpost&quot;&gt;&lt;a href=&quot;http://s552.photobucket.com/user/senorquentinos/media/Blog/29c3a04f_zps35aaf75a.jpg.html&quot; target=&quot;_blank&quot;&gt;&lt;img width=&quot;400&quot; src=&quot;http://i552.photobucket.com/albums/jj344/senorquentinos/Blog/29c3a04f_zps35aaf75a.jpg&quot; border=&quot;0&quot; alt=&quot; photo 29c3a04f_zps35aaf75a.jpg&quot;/&gt;&lt;/a&gt;&lt;br /&gt;
  529. &lt;a href=&quot;http://en.wikipedia.org/wiki/Doraemon&quot;&gt;Doraemon&lt;/a&gt; is a story of the eponymous blue robotic cat who travelled back in time to the 20th century in order to look after his owner&#39;s great-grandfather, Nobita, so that his descendants may prosper a better life in the future under Doraemon&#39;s guidance.&lt;br /&gt;
  530. &lt;br /&gt;
  531. The many short stories in the manga see Nobita and his daily life, be it his poor grades at school, or being bullied by friends Gian or Suneo, as well as his encounter with his love interest Shizuka. In many situations Doraemon will lend out his gadgets to help Nobita, which are often abused by Nobita or stolen by his friends. By the end of the story, the characters who do wrong are usually punished.&lt;br /&gt;

  535. &lt;br /&gt;
  536. Together with the annual 2D feature length movies, it&#39;s interesting to hear that a new Doraemon movie is in the making. Though I must say I am not very used to the new looks of Doraemon and his friends in this upcoming movie, having getting used to the 2D form for many years; even the &quot;3D&quot; versions have remained fairly faithful to the original appearances in the past. Nevertheless, this may be something worth looking forward to for those who reads them in the childhood? If not then there is always the 2D ones to look forward to. ^^&lt;br /&gt;

  611. Remember a &lt;a href=&quot;http://quentinlau.blogspot.com/2012/10/madoka-film-strip-sold-over-1-million.html&quot;&gt;Puella Magi Madoka Magica film strip that was sold for over 1 million Yen&lt;/a&gt; last year? Well, there appears to be a new record that broke it by a factor of 4.&lt;br /&gt;
  612. &lt;br /&gt;
  613. &lt;span class=&quot;fullpost&quot;&gt;This film strip features the film&#39;s title name &quot;Hangyaku no Monogatari&quot; (literally &quot;story of rebellion&quot;. Unlike the first two movies, which are a retelling of the TV series, the third movie of the Puella Magi Madoka Magica movie trilogy features a new story that stems from the TV series&#39; ending.&lt;br /&gt;
  614. &lt;br /&gt;
  615. The auction lasted for 3 days from 11th to 14th November, with a total of 664 bids and ended with the price of 4,103,000 Yen. The film strip was a present for those who watched the movie in cinema. Each strip feature a few frames of the movie. Those with memorable or significant scenes will be in higher demand and/or have high collection values, hence potentially higher prices in online auctions.&lt;br /&gt;
  616. &lt;a href=&quot;http://s552.photobucket.com/user/senorquentinos/media/Blog/natulow69-img208x600-1384107039bbpwo599438_zps7d89ea93.jpg.html&quot; target=&quot;_blank&quot;&gt;&lt;img src=&quot;http://i552.photobucket.com/albums/jj344/senorquentinos/Blog/natulow69-img208x600-1384107039bbpwo599438_zps7d89ea93.jpg&quot; border=&quot;0&quot; alt=&quot; photo natulow69-img208x600-1384107039bbpwo599438_zps7d89ea93.jpg&quot;/&gt;&lt;/a&gt;&lt;br /&gt;
  617. &lt;a href=&quot;http://s552.photobucket.com/user/senorquentinos/media/Blog/natulow69-img529x287-1384107038gxxjey99438_zps9a53d053.jpg.html&quot; target=&quot;_blank&quot;&gt;&lt;img width=&quot;400&quot; src=&quot;http://i552.photobucket.com/albums/jj344/senorquentinos/Blog/natulow69-img529x287-1384107038gxxjey99438_zps9a53d053.jpg&quot; border=&quot;0&quot; alt=&quot; photo natulow69-img529x287-1384107038gxxjey99438_zps9a53d053.jpg&quot;/&gt;&lt;/a&gt;&lt;br /&gt;
  618. &lt;br /&gt;
  619. There is an uncertainty in the auction&#39;s authenticity though, as I did put a question mark at my blog post&#39;s title. Most of the bidders are newly registered members, and there was &lt;a href=&quot;http://page13.auctions.yahoo.co.jp/jp/auction/r107795132&quot;&gt;another auction with similar film strip&lt;/a&gt; that ended at 18,500 Yen.&lt;br /&gt;
  620. &lt;br /&gt;
  621. Maybe it was just a stunt? That would be a bit disappointing if it were to be the case.&lt;br /&gt;

  626. Hong Kong cuisine restaurants in Japan have a dish called Taxi Rice (タクシー飯). Sounds and looks genuine in a way, but it&#39;s never known in Hong Kong. What is this exactly?&lt;br /&gt;
  627. &lt;br /&gt;
  628. &lt;span class=&quot;fullpost&quot;&gt;&lt;a href=&quot;http://s552.photobucket.com/user/senorquentinos/media/Blog/1384179168_0_zpsebe995a5.jpg.html&quot; target=&quot;_blank&quot;&gt;&lt;img width=&quot;400&quot; src=&quot;http://i552.photobucket.com/albums/jj344/senorquentinos/Blog/1384179168_0_zpsebe995a5.jpg&quot; border=&quot;0&quot; alt=&quot; photo 1384179168_0_zpsebe995a5.jpg&quot;/&gt;&lt;/a&gt;&lt;br /&gt;
  629. According to online descriptions, the so-called Taxi Rice is named after Hong Kong&#39;s taxi drivers, who want a quick fried rice dish to be prepared and be eaten quickly so they can get back on with their work. &lt;br /&gt;
  630. &lt;br /&gt;
  631. &lt;a href=&quot;http://s552.photobucket.com/user/senorquentinos/media/Blog/img_1530435_64055679_6_zpsea1b6576.jpg.html&quot; target=&quot;_blank&quot;&gt;&lt;img width=&quot;400&quot; src=&quot;http://i552.photobucket.com/albums/jj344/senorquentinos/Blog/img_1530435_64055679_6_zpsea1b6576.jpg&quot; border=&quot;0&quot; alt=&quot; photo img_1530435_64055679_6_zpsea1b6576.jpg&quot;/&gt;&lt;/a&gt;&lt;br /&gt;
  632. It seems to be fried rice with &lt;a href=&quot;http://en.wikipedia.org/wiki/Nian_gao&quot;&gt;nian gao&lt;/a&gt;, shrimp, vegetables all mixed together with heavy use of thick sauce.&lt;br /&gt;
  633. &lt;br /&gt;
  634. Just like &lt;a href=&quot;http://en.wikipedia.org/wiki/Yeung_Chow_fried_rice&quot;&gt;Yang Chow fried rice&lt;/a&gt; does not originate in Yangzhou, or that &lt;a href=&quot;http://en.wikipedia.org/wiki/Singapore-style_noodles&quot;&gt;Singapore-style noodles&lt;/a&gt; (星洲炒米) does not come from Singapore, together with a few other dishes whose name do not match their actual place of origin.&lt;br /&gt;
  635. &lt;br /&gt;
  636. &lt;a href=&quot;http://s552.photobucket.com/user/senorquentinos/media/Blog/fbb85b885b8c23f57caf07fe21ece63c_zpse03f29dd.jpg.html&quot; target=&quot;_blank&quot;&gt;&lt;img width=&quot;400&quot; src=&quot;http://i552.photobucket.com/albums/jj344/senorquentinos/Blog/fbb85b885b8c23f57caf07fe21ece63c_zpse03f29dd.jpg&quot; border=&quot;0&quot; alt=&quot; photo fbb85b885b8c23f57caf07fe21ece63c_zpse03f29dd.jpg&quot;/&gt;&lt;/a&gt;&lt;br /&gt;
  637. The dish does seem to be faitly popular in Japan, and it makes appearance in several chain restaurants. Prices are tagged between 700 to 900 Yen. It may be interesting to try it and see how foreigners think of Hong Kong dishes as a Hongkonger myself. :P&lt;br /&gt;

  644. &lt;i&gt;Robot Damshii ELS QAN[T] posed in the style of Gundam 00 movie ending scene. Image from &lt;a href=&quot;http://cafeyui.net/00-quanta-els/&quot;&gt;Yui&#39;s blog&lt;/a&gt;&lt;/i&gt;&lt;br /&gt;
  645. &lt;br /&gt;
  646. After &lt;a href=&quot;http://quentinlau.blogspot.com/2013/10/tamashii-features-vol-7-part-1.html&quot;&gt;part 1&lt;/a&gt; and &lt;a href=&quot;http://quentinlau.blogspot.com/2013/10/tamashii-features-vol-7-part-2.html&quot;&gt;part 2&lt;/a&gt;, the final part for TAMASHII Feature&#39;s Vol. 7 coverage is on the making of a Robot Damashii action figure. I find this to be rather interesting as it&#39;s not something that is featured often, so I dedicated a post for it.&lt;br /&gt;
  647. &lt;br /&gt;
  648. &lt;span class=&quot;fullpost&quot;&gt;&lt;a href=&quot;http://www.flickr.com/photos/quentinlau/10490036005/&quot; title=&quot;IMG_20130831_181912 by quentinlau, on Flickr&quot;&gt;&lt;img src=&quot;http://farm4.staticflickr.com/3791/10490036005_26be5a0798.jpg&quot; width=&quot;300&quot; height=&quot;400&quot; alt=&quot;IMG_20130831_181912&quot;&gt;&lt;/a&gt;&lt;br /&gt;
  649. 1. A conference is held with several departments to discuss what to be merchandised, the release date, and other proposals.&lt;br /&gt;
  650. &lt;br /&gt;
  651. &lt;a href=&quot;http://www.flickr.com/photos/quentinlau/10490226943/&quot; title=&quot;IMG_20130831_181945 by quentinlau, on Flickr&quot;&gt;&lt;img src=&quot;http://farm6.staticflickr.com/5482/10490226943_7a105f22c1.jpg&quot; width=&quot;300&quot; height=&quot;400&quot; alt=&quot;IMG_20130831_181945&quot;&gt;&lt;/a&gt;&lt;br /&gt;
  652. 2. Once the proposal is determined, the license holder of the subject is contacted for permission of merchandising.&lt;br /&gt;
  653. &lt;br /&gt;
  654. As the example here is Robot Damashii Full Armour Unicorn Gundam, Tamashii Nation will seek Sunrise for permission.&lt;br /&gt;
  655. &lt;br /&gt;
  656. Every samples progress will be co-supervised by the license holder&lt;br /&gt;
  657. &lt;br /&gt;
  658. &lt;a href=&quot;http://www.flickr.com/photos/quentinlau/10490016935/&quot; title=&quot;IMG_20130831_182018 by quentinlau, on Flickr&quot;&gt;&lt;img src=&quot;http://farm8.staticflickr.com/7376/10490016935_0863ca9a21.jpg&quot; width=&quot;400&quot; height=&quot;300&quot; alt=&quot;IMG_20130831_182018&quot;&gt;&lt;/a&gt;&lt;br /&gt;
  659. &lt;a href=&quot;http://www.flickr.com/photos/quentinlau/10490035465/&quot; title=&quot;IMG_20130831_182045 by quentinlau, on Flickr&quot;&gt;&lt;img src=&quot;http://farm4.staticflickr.com/3797/10490035465_332be9bacf.jpg&quot; width=&quot;300&quot; height=&quot;400&quot; alt=&quot;IMG_20130831_182045&quot;&gt;&lt;/a&gt;&lt;br /&gt;
  660. 3. After getting permission, a sculpted sample is to be made by a company called Liquidsone. All parts, including the joints, are done by hand.&lt;br /&gt;
  661. &lt;br /&gt;
  662. Liquidsone is apparently a company that specialises on sculpting samples of action figures, be it for mechs or for bishoujo characters. What&#39;s strange is that I can&#39;t find any info for it online, unless the name is misspelt, which would be rather embarassing (I hope this is not the case!). &lt;br /&gt;
  663. &lt;br /&gt;
  664. &lt;a href=&quot;http://www.flickr.com/photos/quentinlau/10490042186/&quot; title=&quot;IMG_20130831_182159 by quentinlau, on Flickr&quot;&gt;&lt;img src=&quot;http://farm8.staticflickr.com/7382/10490042186_4e805d4928.jpg&quot; width=&quot;300&quot; height=&quot;400&quot; alt=&quot;IMG_20130831_182159&quot;&gt;&lt;/a&gt;&lt;br /&gt;
  665. &lt;a href=&quot;http://www.flickr.com/photos/quentinlau/10490041906/&quot; title=&quot;IMG_20130831_182213 by quentinlau, on Flickr&quot;&gt;&lt;img src=&quot;http://farm8.staticflickr.com/7330/10490041906_5c23a3efd3.jpg&quot; width=&quot;400&quot; height=&quot;300&quot; alt=&quot;IMG_20130831_182213&quot;&gt;&lt;/a&gt;&lt;br /&gt;
  666. 4. Once the sample is sculpted, colouring comes next. Since the Full Armour Unicorn Gundam is based on previous previous releases of Unicorn Gundam, the colour of the actual Gundam is already decided. Just the extra weapons need further decision after comparing with the colours used in the anime.&lt;br /&gt;
  667. &lt;br /&gt;
  668. &lt;a href=&quot;http://www.flickr.com/photos/quentinlau/10490046574/&quot; title=&quot;IMG_20130831_182232 by quentinlau, on Flickr&quot;&gt;&lt;img src=&quot;http://farm6.staticflickr.com/5491/10490046574_663d6a4516.jpg&quot; width=&quot;300&quot; height=&quot;400&quot; alt=&quot;IMG_20130831_182232&quot;&gt;&lt;/a&gt;&lt;br /&gt;
  669. 5. The coloured sample is sent to the factory together with instructions and any further specifications.&lt;br /&gt;
  670. &lt;br /&gt;
  671. &lt;a href=&quot;http://www.flickr.com/photos/quentinlau/10490041326/&quot; title=&quot;IMG_20130831_182245 by quentinlau, on Flickr&quot;&gt;&lt;img src=&quot;http://farm8.staticflickr.com/7338/10490041326_272c893fb9.jpg&quot; width=&quot;300&quot; height=&quot;400&quot; alt=&quot;IMG_20130831_182245&quot;&gt;&lt;/a&gt;&lt;br /&gt;
  672. &lt;a href=&quot;http://www.flickr.com/photos/quentinlau/10490045774/&quot; title=&quot;IMG_20130831_182339 by quentinlau, on Flickr&quot;&gt;&lt;img src=&quot;http://farm4.staticflickr.com/3815/10490045774_8f05cdbe72.jpg&quot; width=&quot;400&quot; height=&quot;300&quot; alt=&quot;IMG_20130831_182339&quot;&gt;&lt;/a&gt;&lt;br /&gt;
  673. &lt;a href=&quot;http://www.flickr.com/photos/quentinlau/10490207543/&quot; title=&quot;IMG_20130831_182351 by quentinlau, on Flickr&quot;&gt;&lt;img src=&quot;http://farm6.staticflickr.com/5545/10490207543_32868c9cd1.jpg&quot; width=&quot;300&quot; height=&quot;400&quot; alt=&quot;IMG_20130831_182351&quot;&gt;&lt;/a&gt;&lt;br /&gt;
  674. &lt;a href=&quot;http://www.flickr.com/photos/quentinlau/10490040556/&quot; title=&quot;IMG_20130831_182420 by quentinlau, on Flickr&quot;&gt;&lt;img src=&quot;http://farm6.staticflickr.com/5525/10490040556_fe1405fdf4.jpg&quot; width=&quot;300&quot; height=&quot;400&quot; alt=&quot;IMG_20130831_182420&quot;&gt;&lt;/a&gt;&lt;br /&gt;
  675. Specific instructions, such as which parts are the same from older releases, which parts share the same pegs / hole sizes, and articulations are annotated across various pictures for the factory to understand and make a factory sample.&lt;br /&gt;
  676. &lt;br /&gt;
  677. &lt;a href=&quot;http://www.flickr.com/photos/quentinlau/10490033145/&quot; title=&quot;IMG_20130831_182446 by quentinlau, on Flickr&quot;&gt;&lt;img src=&quot;http://farm4.staticflickr.com/3709/10490033145_d967d613f7.jpg&quot; width=&quot;400&quot; height=&quot;300&quot; alt=&quot;IMG_20130831_182446&quot;&gt;&lt;/a&gt;&lt;br /&gt;
  678. &lt;a href=&quot;http://www.flickr.com/photos/quentinlau/10490032955/&quot; title=&quot;IMG_20130831_182514 by quentinlau, on Flickr&quot;&gt;&lt;img src=&quot;http://farm3.staticflickr.com/2809/10490032955_55ff312a98.jpg&quot; width=&quot;300&quot; height=&quot;400&quot; alt=&quot;IMG_20130831_182514&quot;&gt;&lt;/a&gt;&lt;br /&gt;
  679. &lt;a href=&quot;http://www.flickr.com/photos/quentinlau/10490044674/&quot; title=&quot;IMG_20130831_182527 by quentinlau, on Flickr&quot;&gt;&lt;img src=&quot;http://farm8.staticflickr.com/7313/10490044674_74635a60a7.jpg&quot; width=&quot;300&quot; height=&quot;400&quot; alt=&quot;IMG_20130831_182527&quot;&gt;&lt;/a&gt;&lt;br /&gt;
  680. &lt;a href=&quot;http://www.flickr.com/photos/quentinlau/10490044314/&quot; title=&quot;IMG_20130831_182549 by quentinlau, on Flickr&quot;&gt;&lt;img src=&quot;http://farm6.staticflickr.com/5481/10490044314_0cc5206e4e.jpg&quot; width=&quot;300&quot; height=&quot;400&quot; alt=&quot;IMG_20130831_182549&quot;&gt;&lt;/a&gt;&lt;br /&gt;
  681. 6. Sample revision. Factory&#39;s sample is not perfect on the first time for replication of the sculptor&#39;s sample. It takes multiple revisions before a final sample is approved by Bandai for mass production.&lt;br /&gt;
  682. &lt;br /&gt;
  683. &lt;a href=&quot;http://www.flickr.com/photos/quentinlau/10490222973/&quot; title=&quot;IMG_20130831_182614 by quentinlau, on Flickr&quot;&gt;&lt;img src=&quot;http://farm4.staticflickr.com/3776/10490222973_b768e5f2d7.jpg&quot; width=&quot;300&quot; height=&quot;400&quot; alt=&quot;IMG_20130831_182614&quot;&gt;&lt;/a&gt;&lt;br /&gt;
  684. 7. Photo shooting. Once sample is finalised, it is taken for photo shooting. The joints for the sample are not as stiff as the final product, therefore it can take much more time to pose and keep it in place while taking photos.&lt;br /&gt;
  685. &lt;br /&gt;
  686. &lt;a href=&quot;http://www.flickr.com/photos/quentinlau/10490031545/&quot; title=&quot;IMG_20130831_182637 by quentinlau, on Flickr&quot;&gt;&lt;img src=&quot;http://farm6.staticflickr.com/5477/10490031545_8967d341e3.jpg&quot; width=&quot;300&quot; height=&quot;400&quot; alt=&quot;IMG_20130831_182637&quot;&gt;&lt;/a&gt;&lt;br /&gt;
  687. 8. Package design. The idea for the package design is to look cool. The picture above shows how the package layout for Testament Gundam is based on Full Armour Unicorn.&lt;br /&gt;
  688. &lt;br /&gt;
  689. &lt;a href=&quot;http://www.flickr.com/photos/quentinlau/10490031405/&quot; title=&quot;IMG_20130831_182658 by quentinlau, on Flickr&quot;&gt;&lt;img src=&quot;http://farm8.staticflickr.com/7379/10490031405_66295dc9d2.jpg&quot; width=&quot;400&quot; height=&quot;300&quot; alt=&quot;IMG_20130831_182658&quot;&gt;&lt;/a&gt;&lt;br /&gt;
  690. 9. Mass Production. Mass producing the final product based on the final approved factory sample takes quite a few steps as seen in the picture above. I&#39;ll break it down into smaller sections for explanation.&lt;br /&gt;
  691. &lt;br /&gt;
  692. &lt;a href=&quot;http://www.flickr.com/photos/quentinlau/10490038216/&quot; title=&quot;IMG_20130831_182717 by quentinlau, on Flickr&quot;&gt;&lt;img src=&quot;http://farm6.staticflickr.com/5493/10490038216_2d19847985.jpg&quot; width=&quot;400&quot; height=&quot;300&quot; alt=&quot;IMG_20130831_182717&quot;&gt;&lt;/a&gt;&lt;br /&gt;
  693. We take ELS QAN[T] for example, which was a &lt;a href=&quot;http://p-bandai.jp/tamashiiwebshouten/item-1000076361/&quot;&gt;web shop limited item&lt;/a&gt; released at the end of last year. According to them, each part and each step is carried out by one person, therefore making one full product requires a lot of manpower.&lt;br /&gt;
  694. &lt;br /&gt;
  695. Robot Damashii ELS QAN[T] has a total of 225 parts (!).&lt;br /&gt;
  696. &lt;br /&gt;
  697. &lt;a href=&quot;http://www.flickr.com/photos/quentinlau/10490030575/&quot; title=&quot;IMG_20130831_182729 by quentinlau, on Flickr&quot;&gt;&lt;img src=&quot;http://farm8.staticflickr.com/7338/10490030575_d3a2abd5d0.jpg&quot; width=&quot;400&quot; height=&quot;300&quot; alt=&quot;IMG_20130831_182729&quot;&gt;&lt;/a&gt;&lt;br /&gt;
  698. A total of 177 steps is required for colouring, and the total number of people responsible for mass producing is approximately 400 people (!). ELS QAN[T] has a lot of colour gradation, therefore it is antitipcated to need a lot of colouring.&lt;br /&gt;
  699. &lt;br /&gt;
  700. &lt;a href=&quot;http://www.flickr.com/photos/quentinlau/10490037406/&quot; title=&quot;IMG_20130831_182743 by quentinlau, on Flickr&quot;&gt;&lt;img src=&quot;http://farm8.staticflickr.com/7315/10490037406_dbe7a82de3.jpg&quot; width=&quot;400&quot; height=&quot;300&quot; alt=&quot;IMG_20130831_182743&quot;&gt;&lt;/a&gt;&lt;br /&gt;
  701. What about from the beginning? First the metal mould must be made for the parts. For precision in replication 3D scanning and CAD are used. Once the moulds are made, plastic is hot injected into the mould, forming runners, and the parts have to be cut away by hand.&lt;br /&gt;
  702. &lt;br /&gt;
  703. &lt;a href=&quot;http://www.flickr.com/photos/quentinlau/10490030195/&quot; title=&quot;IMG_20130831_182801 by quentinlau, on Flickr&quot;&gt;&lt;img src=&quot;http://farm6.staticflickr.com/5479/10490030195_db34149010.jpg&quot; width=&quot;400&quot; height=&quot;300&quot; alt=&quot;IMG_20130831_182801&quot;&gt;&lt;/a&gt;&lt;br /&gt;
  704. The parts are then painted before being assembled.&lt;br /&gt;
  705. &lt;br /&gt;
  706. &lt;a href=&quot;http://www.flickr.com/photos/quentinlau/10490037066/&quot; title=&quot;IMG_20130831_182815 by quentinlau, on Flickr&quot;&gt;&lt;img src=&quot;http://farm8.staticflickr.com/7368/10490037066_24e4d69253.jpg&quot; width=&quot;400&quot; height=&quot;300&quot; alt=&quot;IMG_20130831_182815&quot;&gt;&lt;/a&gt;&lt;br /&gt;
  707. Here are the moulds that were on display. All are made of metal, and all have a slot where plastic is injected into the mould to form the runners.&lt;br /&gt;
  708. &lt;br /&gt;
  709. &lt;a href=&quot;http://www.flickr.com/photos/quentinlau/10490041994/&quot; title=&quot;IMG_20130831_182842 by quentinlau, on Flickr&quot;&gt;&lt;img src=&quot;http://farm8.staticflickr.com/7386/10490041994_e6aa98b926.jpg&quot; width=&quot;400&quot; height=&quot;300&quot; alt=&quot;IMG_20130831_182842&quot;&gt;&lt;/a&gt;&lt;br /&gt;
  710. And here are the runners formed after the moulds are removed. They look like those seen in model kits, don&#39;t they? The main difference between those in mass production and those for model kits is that the former has minimal runners for efficiency; the latter tend to have a full frame around as seen in Gunpla kits.&lt;br /&gt;
  711. &lt;br /&gt;
  712. &lt;a href=&quot;http://www.flickr.com/photos/quentinlau/10490036826/&quot; title=&quot;IMG_20130831_182857 by quentinlau, on Flickr&quot;&gt;&lt;img src=&quot;http://farm6.staticflickr.com/5472/10490036826_06e5dd9a40.jpg&quot; width=&quot;400&quot; height=&quot;300&quot; alt=&quot;IMG_20130831_182857&quot;&gt;&lt;/a&gt;&lt;br /&gt;
  713. Masks are used for holding specific parts in placed, while revealing only the required area for painting. Each are unique for their own corresponding parts, just like the moulds.&lt;br /&gt;
  714. &lt;br /&gt;
  715. For very fine details, decals are used instead.&lt;br /&gt;
  716. &lt;br /&gt;
  717. &lt;a href=&quot;http://www.flickr.com/photos/quentinlau/10490016745/&quot; title=&quot;IMG_20130831_182915 by quentinlau, on Flickr&quot;&gt;&lt;img src=&quot;http://farm4.staticflickr.com/3828/10490016745_2a67a866a3.jpg&quot; width=&quot;400&quot; height=&quot;300&quot; alt=&quot;IMG_20130831_182915&quot;&gt;&lt;/a&gt;&lt;br /&gt;
  718. And here is the final product. 225 parts in one package done by 400+ people.&lt;br /&gt;
  719. &lt;br /&gt;
  720. &lt;br /&gt;
  721. It&#39;s an interesting insight to see how the toys are made from planning to mass production. Many toys are more or less manufactured in the same way, but it&#39;s nice to see some of the backstage work that contribute to the final product we get at the end. Next time you get a Robot Damashii, or any other toys, think about the efforts behind it!&lt;br /&gt;

  866. After &lt;a href=&quot;http://quentinlau.blogspot.com/2013/10/gundam-docks-at-hong-kong.html&quot;&gt;Gundam Docks at Hong Kong&lt;/a&gt;, another backlogged coverage was the Tamashii Feature&#39;s Vol. 7 held by Bandai. The event was an exhibition showing off the action figures released by Tamashii Nations of Bandai, as well as the upcoming ones that were due to release in forseeable future.&lt;br /&gt;

  869. Unlike last time, the exihibition was held in a place called &lt;a href=&quot;http://www.innocentre.com.hk/innocentre/EN/FE&quot;&gt;Innocentre&lt;/a&gt; in Kowloon Tong. It was my first time going to this venue, but thankfully wasn&#39;t hard to find.&lt;br /&gt;

  1116. GFFMC Psycho Gundam Hong Kong Night version&lt;br /&gt;

  1119. That wraps up the long backlogged event! Wish I could bring this up earlier orz.&lt;br /&gt;
  1120. &lt;br /&gt;
  1121. While the Gundam and Zaku were not of life size, it&#39;s still impressive to see the 6m replicas standing in one of the busiest areas in Hong Kong. It&#39;s also amazing how the venerable director of Gundam &lt;a href=&quot;http://quentinlau.blogspot.com/2013/08/yoshiyuki-tomino-visits-hong-kong.html&quot;&gt;Yoshiyuki Tomino was invited to Hong Kong for an interview&lt;/a&gt;! The human size Zaku statues are a nice addition for people to take photos with, though there are reports of damage from people who mistreated them. :\&lt;br /&gt;
  1122. &lt;br /&gt;
  1123. Nevertheless I am glad that Hong Kong managed to host such an event, which shows just how popular the franchise is over ehre. I do hope to see more of such events in the future!&lt;br /&gt;
  1124. &lt;br /&gt;

  1140. &lt;br /&gt;
  1141. The game is a crossover 2D fighting game featuring multiple fiction works, not unlike games like &lt;a href=&quot;http://en.wikipedia.org/wiki/Aquapazza:_Aquaplus_Dream_Match&quot;&gt;Aquapazza: Aquaplus Dream Match&lt;/a&gt;. It is developed by Ecole Software / French Bread, which are known for the fighting games &lt;a href=&quot;http://en.wikipedia.org/wiki/Melty_Blood&quot;&gt;Melty Blood&lt;/a&gt; and recently Under Night In-Birth.&lt;br /&gt;
  1142. &lt;br /&gt;
  1143. As of now, the confirmed characters to make make appearance are Shana from Shakugan no Shana, Asuna from Sword Art Online, Misaka Mikoto from To Aru Majutsu no Index (aka A Certain Magic Index), Kirino Kousaka from Ore no Imouto ga Konna ni Kawaii Wake ga Nai (aka My Sister Cannot be this Cute), and Shizuo Heiwajima from Durarara!!.&lt;br /&gt;
  1144. &lt;br /&gt;
  1145. Limited location tests will be held this month, and more characters will likely to follow. A crossover dream match featuring popular anime characters can draw attention. Shounen Jump is also having its own crossover fighting game due for released called &lt;a href=&quot;http://www.bandaigames.channel.or.jp/list/jump45/pc/index2.html&quot;&gt;J-Stars Victory VS&lt;/a&gt;. Will these be available overseas? That is very hard to say.&lt;br /&gt;

  1150. A bit of an old news by now, but Sony recently released Xperia feat. HATSUNE MIKU (nicknamed &quot;Mikuperia&quot;), a special variant of Xperia A smartphone featuring voice synthesiser program mascot (and virtual idol) Hatsune Miku.&lt;br /&gt;
  1151. &lt;br /&gt;
  1152. &lt;span class=&quot;fullpost&quot;&gt;&lt;a href=&quot;http://s552.photobucket.com/user/senorquentinos/media/Blog/SO04E_MIKU_Miku_XL_zpsd3382e5f.jpg.html&quot; target=&quot;_blank&quot;&gt;&lt;img width=&quot;400&quot; src=&quot;http://i552.photobucket.com/albums/jj344/senorquentinos/Blog/SO04E_MIKU_Miku_XL_zpsd3382e5f.jpg&quot; border=&quot;0&quot; alt=&quot; photo SO04E_MIKU_Miku_XL_zpsd3382e5f.jpg&quot;/&gt;&lt;/a&gt;&lt;br /&gt;
  1153. The phone&#39;s outward appearance has a black and teal green colour theme, together with one of Miku&#39;s twin tail on the back side. The artwork is done by iXima, whose image is used for the PlayStation Vita Project Diva f skin and also a base image for the upcoming &lt;a href=&quot;http://quentinlau.blogspot.com/2013/08/volks-dollfie-dream-hatsune-miku.html&quot;&gt;Dollfie Dream doll&lt;/a&gt;.&lt;br /&gt;
  1154. &lt;br /&gt;
  1155. &lt;a href=&quot;http://s552.photobucket.com/user/senorquentinos/media/Blog/start-end-image_zpsf1dbf26b.png.html&quot; target=&quot;_blank&quot;&gt;&lt;img width=&quot;400&quot; src=&quot;http://i552.photobucket.com/albums/jj344/senorquentinos/Blog/start-end-image_zpsf1dbf26b.png&quot; border=&quot;0&quot; alt=&quot; photo start-end-image_zpsf1dbf26b.png&quot;/&gt;&lt;/a&gt;&lt;br /&gt;
  1156. Software-wise, The Xperia feat. HATSUNE MIKU runs a customised Android 4.2 OS specifically for the phone. This is true even with the start-up animation.&lt;br /&gt;
  1157. &lt;br /&gt;
  1158. &lt;a href=&quot;http://s552.photobucket.com/user/senorquentinos/media/Blog/message-image-01_zps216a8ccd.jpg.html&quot; target=&quot;_blank&quot;&gt;&lt;img width=&quot;400&quot; src=&quot;http://i552.photobucket.com/albums/jj344/senorquentinos/Blog/message-image-01_zps216a8ccd.jpg&quot; border=&quot;0&quot; alt=&quot; photo message-image-01_zps216a8ccd.jpg&quot;/&gt;&lt;/a&gt;&lt;br /&gt;
  1159. Custom tailored Miku-themed applications such as the music player (Voicaloid-sung songs included), downloader, and weather forecast can be found. It even has an app called &quot;Find Creative News&quot;, where you can keep updated with new Vocaloid-related works on Pixiv and NicoNico video! Widgets such as battery and alarm are also custom made for the phone.&lt;br /&gt;
  1160. &lt;br /&gt;
  1161. &lt;a href=&quot;http://s552.photobucket.com/user/senorquentinos/media/Blog/palette-image_zpsfb9589da.png.html&quot; target=&quot;_blank&quot;&gt;&lt;img width=&quot;400&quot; src=&quot;http://i552.photobucket.com/albums/jj344/senorquentinos/Blog/palette-image_zpsfb9589da.png&quot; border=&quot;0&quot; alt=&quot; photo palette-image_zpsfb9589da.png&quot;/&gt;&lt;/a&gt;&lt;a href=&quot;http://s552.photobucket.com/user/senorquentinos/media/Blog/kisekae-image_zps157f3ae1.png.html&quot; target=&quot;_blank&quot;&gt;&lt;img width=&quot;400&quot; src=&quot;http://i552.photobucket.com/albums/jj344/senorquentinos/Blog/kisekae-image_zps157f3ae1.png&quot; border=&quot;0&quot; alt=&quot; photo kisekae-image_zps157f3ae1.png&quot;/&gt;&lt;/a&gt;&lt;br /&gt;
  1162. In case you want other characters other than Miku, custom palettes and wallpapers for other Vocaloid character such as Kaito and Megurine Luka are also available.&lt;br /&gt;
  1163. &lt;br /&gt;
  1164. There are also many Miku wallpapers drawn by various artists, songs, voice tones etc for you to customise further on phone.&lt;br /&gt;
  1165. &lt;br /&gt;
  1166. &lt;a href=&quot;http://s552.photobucket.com/user/senorquentinos/media/Blog/BUR0gtRCEAA8vGH_zps163bfc64.jpg.html&quot; target=&quot;_blank&quot;&gt;&lt;img width=&quot;400&quot; src=&quot;http://i552.photobucket.com/albums/jj344/senorquentinos/Blog/BUR0gtRCEAA8vGH_zps163bfc64.jpg&quot; border=&quot;0&quot; alt=&quot; photo BUR0gtRCEAA8vGH_zps163bfc64.jpg&quot;/&gt;&lt;/a&gt;&lt;br /&gt;
  1167. To promote the phone, advertisment banners can be seen in Tokyo. This one from &lt;a href=&quot;https://twitter.com/phaius66/status/379556374016827393/photo/1&quot;&gt;twitter&lt;/a&gt; is seen in JR Shibuya station.&lt;br /&gt;
  1168. &lt;br /&gt;
  1169. The quantity is limited to 39000 units. Originally it was only available via pre-order, but one can still buy it from &lt;a href=&quot;https://www.mydocomo.com/onlineshop/products/smart_phone/SO04E_MIKU.html?cid=OLS_PRD_smart_phone_SO04E_MIKU_from_bnr_39dx&quot;&gt;docomo&#39;s network web store&lt;/a&gt; as of today. That said, a phone network contract with docomo will be required as part of the payment for the phone. &lt;br /&gt;
  1170. &lt;br /&gt;
  1171. There are increasingly more products featuring collaborations with Miku recently. After the &lt;a href=&quot;http://quentinlau.blogspot.com/2013/02/hatsune-miku-collaboration-glasses.html&quot;&gt;Miku glasses&lt;/a&gt; and &lt;a href=&quot;www.youtube.com/watch?v=gW2D_Votd2Y&quot;&gt;Miku Domino Pizza&lt;/a&gt;, we now have an official Miku smartphone. There are a lot to offer, which is pretty ideal for big fans with lots of customisation to offer. While it&#39;s supposed to be limited to Japan only, those who are willing to get over with the contract part and possibly the proxy can actually go for it.&lt;br /&gt;
  1172. &lt;br /&gt;
  1173. EDIT: My friend Yui got one recently as well. You can check his review &lt;a href=&quot;http://cafeyui.net/xperia-hatsune-miku/&quot;&gt;here&lt;/a&gt;!&lt;br /&gt;

  1178. The team behind the increasingly popular web browser game for anthropomorphised Japanese WWII warships &quot;Kantai Collection&quot; (aka Kan Colle) has announced an anime adaptation is on green light, and that a PS Vita port is also being developed at the moment (release date not known).&lt;br /&gt;
  1179. &lt;br /&gt;
  1180. &lt;span class=&quot;fullpost&quot;&gt;&lt;a href=&quot;http://s552.photobucket.com/user/senorquentinos/media/ku-xlarge_zpse59d341f.jpg.html&quot; target=&quot;_blank&quot;&gt;&lt;img width=&quot;400&quot; src=&quot;http://i552.photobucket.com/albums/jj344/senorquentinos/ku-xlarge_zpse59d341f.jpg&quot; border=&quot;0&quot; alt=&quot; photo ku-xlarge_zpse59d341f.jpg&quot;/&gt;&lt;/a&gt;&lt;br /&gt;
  1181. As mentioned &lt;a href=&quot;http://quentinlau.blogspot.com/2013/08/battleship-girls-game-kancolle.html&quot;&gt;last month&lt;/a&gt;, Kantai Collection is a simulation and management game where you look after a fleet of Japanese WWII warships in the form of anthropomorphised girls, and take them to battle against alien-like warships, of which some of them are also partially or fully humanoid as well. The game does not feature plot, and there is not much of a setting too. Nevertheless the game generates a lot of fanart and doujins based on the ships&#39; characters.&lt;br /&gt;
  1182. &lt;br /&gt;
  1183. There has been speculations that the game will eventually be so popular in Japan that an anime adaptation may happen soon or later, and it does happen, though it may not be aired until the next summer in 2014.&lt;br /&gt;
  1184. &lt;br /&gt;
  1185. This leaves a big question: What is the anime going to be about?&lt;br /&gt;
  1186. &lt;br /&gt;
  1187. As all of the characters are based on WWII warships (and more will be coming with future updates), an reenactment of the Pacific War is possible, but it can be tragic as in real history a majority of the ships sunk, which does mean permanent death for that character in the game&#39;s equivalent (though you can still get more from crafting or as drops, but it can still be a shock for players). Another possible route will be a plotless, slice-of-life approach, which will be more of a comedy instead.&lt;br /&gt;
  1188. &lt;br /&gt;
  1189. Summer 2014 can feel like a long way away. At the moment the game&#39;s popularity is glowing hot, and I hope it will remain high by the time anime comes out. Is it going to be good? I have no idea, as I don&#39;t even know how they would do it. We&#39;ll see how this will develop. :o&lt;br /&gt;
